Sweetie
Synopsis
Sweetie follows seven year-old Tash and her family - mum Lynn, dad Kevin and little brother Ewan - as they attempt to catch a bus home after a day out at the local shopping centre.
Life is sweet, until they discover that they don't have the correct change for the bus and are subsequently 'thrown off'. Watched by a voyeuristic crowd both on the bus and at the bus stop, small actions and reactions cause more problems and humiliation for the family.
